Hi guys. The last weeks had been pretty busy for me and for the first time in my short clay shooting history I had not touched my gun for about 3 weeks… I guessed it is a way to keep our passion go and I felt like I was very eager to kill those targets.

However reality hit me back: I felt pretty uncomfortable after this quite long break and my gun moves were anything but smooth. There was a cold weather and a very strong wind on the first day so I had to shoot fast before the targets got crazy. But I couldn’t manage to manoeuvre my gun well enough to hit the targets consistently.

After a first station where I dropped 3 birds (including 1 single…), I got back on track slowly but dropped my very last true pair to end up with 88ex100. The course was not that difficult but the weather conditions made it pretty tough. I would have been happy with 92, the highest score on this course being 93 on that day. I headed to 5-stand and struggled like hell with my shooting again: 17 + 22 = 39ex50.

The weather on the second day was better and I was able to score 91ex100 on the main Super Sporting event and 22 + 23 = 45ex50 on the 5-stand, which I was more satisfied about. The last day was a bit complicated for me on an easier course and was able to score 88ex100 only. I shot 22 + 24 = 46ex50 on the 5-stand which made me happier.

I have been really impressed by these two Pro Shooters: Tyler Encinas took HOA and the World Champion title with an incredible shooting over the weekend (96 + 96 + 98) when Gebben Miles secured Runner Up with a really good shooting too (93 + 95 + 98). This is such a long way to reach the best…
